Count items, rows, users, etc in Katalon Studio

Question

I am having some problem with Katalon Studio.

Can I somehow count items on the page by class or something?

I can do it with JavaScript but I don't know how to do it with groovy language in Katalon studio.

document.getElementsByClassName("").length

I'm trying to convert this JavaScript code into groovy but nothing happens.

You can also use WebUiBuiltInKeywords to findWebElements as specified in the following URL. It will return a list of elements matching the locator.

static List<WebElement> findWebElements(TestObject to, int timeOut)
// Internal method to find web elements by test object

Examples

def elements = WebUiBuiltInKeywords.findWebElements(to, 5)
println elements.size()

I think you can use the same method of size() like done in Table:

See documentation.

import org.openqa.selenium.By as By

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver as WebDriver

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement as WebElement

WebDriver driver = DriverFactory.getWebDriver()
'To locate table'
WebElement Table = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//table/tbody"))
'To locate rows of table it will Capture all the rows available in the table'
List<WebElement> rows_table = Table.findElements(By.tagName('tr'))
'To calculate no of rows In table'
int rows_count = rows_table.size()
println('No. of rows: ' + rows_count)

Hope this helps you!

Do this

WebDriver driver = DriverFactory.getWebDriver()
def eleCount = driver.findElements(By.className("your-class")).size()
println eleCount //prints out the number of the elements with "your-class" class
